Guys,
I'm having this problem a lot now. Riding a lot of the techier tracks, I'm finding that I am rolling my front tyre repeatedly off my rim. I'm running 2.5 Minion Front's, with WTB wide XC tubes, on an EX5.1d rim, at 30psi. It's only happening on my front rim, and only under cornering. I'm yet to flat, but it's frustrating when I have to stop and let the air out to fit the tyre back on. I'm most worried about having it happen in a race and ruining my (already limited) chances...
I don't really want to change rims (as I'm liking the rim's, both the weight and the strength), nor the tyre. Would tubeless (Stans?) be a good alternative? My rear tyre is run at 35 psi in the dry, and depending on the tyre down to 25psi (with Swampthings) in the wet, and it's not coming off there.
Tips?
